I travel for work, and my hotel doesn’t have a kitchen or even a microwave which means I have to eat out. I went here because the reviews were good and it was next to where I was working. The staff was friendly, and the food looked good when I received it. The pasta had absolutely no seasoning. I had to use a packet of seasoning from Red Robin that was left from the day before. The bread looked fresh, but it was plain white bread no butter, no garlic, not toasted. They also did not include any napkins or utensils with my order but luckily, I keep a travel set it with me .

Wow! Being a New Yorker, I am so particular about Italian food. You guys a super! I’m a fan. Seafood Cannelloni, Rockfish with a white wine sauce and a Birthday Cannoli. I’m sold! Will definitely return. And the Moscato was perfect. Thank you so much! Servers very attentive! Max is great!

Pasta House is an Italian restaurant that far outshines its simple name.

Made a late stop at 8:30pm for a late dinner on our way to VA beach. We were attended to immediately by a wonderful waiter. The restaurant itself was beautiful inside thought it’s name and the outside is unassuming. The food was alright.

Food was tasty. Service was a bit slow. For Moms day there was a menu that didn’t include soup, small side garden salad with main course. House dressing is not that great.

First time dining here with some friends who raved about their food. The place is nicer than it looks from the outside. Pleasant service. I felt welcomed from the time we entered. We did not get our drinks refilled (possibly not a service offered). Initially I was going for the Salmon special but changed my mind (wish I wouldn’t …). I had the Shrimp Fettuccini with Crab and Alfredo Lobster Sauce. It was good once I added some salt to enhanced the flavor. I didn’t really taste any Crab. They did have big chunks of Lobster but only 4 Large Shrimp. I needed more Shrimp to accompany my Pasta (call me greedy ). Homemade everything so extra points for that. Good portion sizes. I was looking for delicious because Italian Food is one of my favorite dishes. My husband had the Chicken special. He devoured it. Our friends are regulars and enjoyed the Stuffed Flounder (tasty) & the Seafood Caravelle. It looked scrumptious. I don’t like Scallops or would’ve joined her.

The worst food and service I have ever had in my 41 yrs on Earth. So we walked in and the ambience lacked everything pleasant. It was dark with a strong Lysol smell at the door. My guest and I decided go give the food a chance because the smell was strong we just assumed the place is clean, we can appreciate that in the middle of a Pandemic. It was 1 older women providing service for 2 other tables and then ours. We decided to order a Salmon/crab alfredo pasta listed on the order board for specials as you enter the restaurant. We also ordered salads for appetizers. The ranch dressing was so watery and asked the server if we could change our dressing to something different. We waited for a while and nothing came, so we reminded her and she shook her head out of frustration and stormed off. The food came or excuse me 1 of the pastas came out of the 2 we ordered. My guest was extremely disappointed. The sauce was watery and the salmon was extremely dried out. Unfortunately my guest called the server back over to return the poor dish and at this time by the way the replacement salad dressings came out. The server snatched the plate from our table and said we dont have complaints about our food so this is ridiculous. She then screamed at us and stated, Do you not understand how expensive crab meat is right now?”. We answered yes we live in Howard County Maryland and we buy crabs or crab meat often. So finally she brought the Second pasta dish out and I actually wanted to taste the dish for myself because who knows I may like it. I did not want my guest distate to change my mind. And yes it was awful. She snatched the dish and stated we wasted her husband’s time cooking both dishes. I asked if we could meet the chef and discuss what we thought and our distaste for the pasta dishes. She said No and proceeded to let us know she was not taking the tab completely off and we would have to pay for half to atheist cover the price of her wasted crab meat. It was a total of $28 or $14 each. The salads were not expensive although we never had the dressing to eat them and had water as our drinks. I did not argue about the price because I knew I would never visit again because we live miles away. We found it on GPS during our drive to VA Beach. I requested to meet her husband the chef again and she said No so we gracefully left. I would not buy the food to feed my dogs or a homeless man.

This place is so freaking good. Their seafood specials are spectacular – they’re actually my favorite local place to go for seafood! (And this is coming from someone who grew up on the Rappahannock!) Super friendly service, so consistent – and the chocolate cake is to die for!
